Pacific Gas and Electric Company

Company Background

As a provider of electricity and natural gas to approximately 40 percent of
Californians and 1 in 20 Americans, we recognize that the way we produce and
deliver our products and serve our customers has a direct impact on the environment.
We understand that environmental excellence is necessary to be a leader in our
industry and to the success of our business. A healthy environment is also necessary
for the well-being and vitality of our customers, employees, and the communities
we serve-as well as society at large.

We are taking a lead in various parts of our business, including: delivering
some of the nation's cleanest electric power, advocating for regulation of greenhouse
gases through partnerships, investing in renewables, and supporting our customers
through one of the country's most successful energy-efficiency programs-and
many other innovative environmental initiatives like ClimateSmart™, a
first-of-its-kind voluntary climate protection program. We are also committed
to sharing information about our actions, taking responsibility for our historic
environmental impacts, and operating in a way that is consistent with our environmental
justice principles.
